Seahawks Secure Postseason Berth with Nail-biting Extra Time Victory over Los Angeles Rams.

The Seattle Seahawks engineered a stunning fightback to defeat the Los Angeles Rams in extra time, securing their place in the NFL play-offs.

Overcoming a sixteen-point deficit in the fourth quarter, the Seattle squad triumphed 38-37 at home, notching their fifth consecutive victory.

While the Los Angeles had already secured a playoff berth earlier on Sunday, the Seahawks secured their place to the play-offs after a 24-month absence.

With this result, the Seattle have taken over their division's standings with a 12-3 mark, supplanting the Los Angeles, who fell to the fifth playoff position with an eleven and four record.

Action Highlights

Signal-caller Sam Darnold threw two interceptions but regrouped to deliver two scoring throws, including the second score to star receiver Smith-Njigba in the extra period.

The Rams held a six-point lead at the break before Walker broke free for a 55-yard scoring dash for the home side.

Rams defensive back Josh Wallace then returned Darnold's initial interception for 56 yards, leading to a short touchdown by Blake Corum on the ensuing snap.

In the fourth quarter, a scoring pass from Matthew Stafford to Nacua extended the advantage to 30-14, but Shaheed ignited the hope with a spectacular punt return.

Darnold then found Barner in the endzone, and a successful conversion forced the contest into overtime.

Although Puka Nacua scored for his another touchdown in overtime, Smith-Njigba responded in kind to setup the game-winning conversion.
